XHTML rendering [message #1782937]

Hello,

I don't understand how to render XHTML in ProR or ReqIF Studio.
I create an XHTML DataType T_ExternalLink that I map on an Attribute External Link. I finally create an associated column in the viewer.
If I copy/paste an example of XHTML code, it gets un incorrect formatting and is not rendered both on ProR and on ReqIF Studio.

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

<head>
  <title>Title of document</title>
</head>

<body>
  some content
</body>

</html>

If i use a ReqIF Studio RTF Presentation to render the XHTML, it has no effect.

Could someone explain me how to render XHTML in ProR or ReqIF Studio or poin me to the correct resource? There is no information on the official documentation.
Thanks!

Hi JB,

ProR does not support XHTML rendering, only ReqIF Studio. This is briefly covered in the handbook here (but not very deep):

https://reqif.academy/library/books/handbook/?page=sect0008.html

If you try to edit a cell with an XHTML attribute, does the rich text editor pop up? If not, then you may be missing JavaFX, which is required for rich text.

Also, we now have a new editor (Extend) that does not rely on JavaFX, and has additional features:

Good luck!

Thanks for your answer.

Indeed, the editor doesn't pop up when I try to edit an XHTML attribute.
Does it depend on the kind of presentation selected?

FYI, I use the following java versions on Red Hat linux, which as far as I understood support Java FX :

$ java -version
openjdk version "1.8.0_161"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_161-b14)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.161-b14, mixed mode)
$ javac -version
javac 1.7.0_161

In the following documentation, it is explained that Quote:

The standard editor from ProR converts rich text to plain text.

http://download.eclipse.org/rmf/documentation/rmf-latex/main.pdf
By converting, it means consider rich text/xhtml as plain text without interpreting it?

Last question, how is managed XHTML attributes when exporting a specification in HTML in ProR? Is it supported and will it be rendered correctly ?

Have a good day!

Yup, that's the problem: openJDK does not include JavaFX. The easiest is to simply install Oracle JRE

Yes, it should render correctly. The HTML simply inlines the XHTML and makes sure images are accessible.

Best,
